De Porta a Porta
14/07/2002
Portland, Oregon, 1955. Apesar de ter nascido com uma paralisia cerebral, que cria limitações na sua fala e movimentos, Bill Porter (William H. Macy) tem todo o apoio da sua mãe para obter um emprego como vendedor na Watkins Company. Bill consegue o emprego, apesar de certa relutância devido às suas limitações, pois teria que ir de porta a porta oferecer os produtos da companhia. Bill só conseguiu o emprego quando disse para lhe darem a pior rota. No início Bill é rejeitado pelas pessoas "normais", mas ao fazer sua 1ª venda para uma alcoólica reclusa, Gladys Sullivan (Kathy Baker), ele não parou mais. Durante mais de 40 anos Bill caminhou 16 quilómetros por dia e, para ajudá-lo nesta trajetória, além da sua mãe e Gladys, surgiu Shelly Soomky Brady (Kyra Sedgwick).
